Share your :2 cents:

uhhh... :2 cents: there ya go

that's brilliant, thanks for sharing.

I give this thread 5 minutes before Lensman kills it.


Until then, I comment on the big piles of crap that are being posted here, mainly non-biz oriented, the lack of the search function drives people away (especially lurkers)... generally the lack of depth.

Then again the recent sig buying/selling trend should have given the graph a bump up, but I guess the lurkers are the ones that are leaving... and causing the graph to collapse.

Cliff notes:

Too much bullshit here. Mostly entertainment, than anything else.

stretch that baby to the 2 year period and you will see the effects of the "Boneprone Era" (June 2003 and before)


and then the Era there after.

That too. bp4l.

see sig, its for a good cause

Its called "summer is officially here" :(

All era's are BP4L bro..

Im just talking the era where i was the Bow to The Power Boneprone around here..

The moderator and the guy who told people to come to this board at all the shows, online and represent this place..

I broght people in the doors..

Before they shut, and the era arose that started pushing em back out.

Anyhow, I havent seen the graph...

Id just be curious to see what it looked like with Pre June 2003 included in this.

It would be intresting.

Click that little "2y" thing at the top of the graph and post it..

Id like to see it.

Alright, hold on for a sec and I'll get something up for you.

GFY over last 2 years from alexa stats:
http://www.beufords.com/!/gfy2year.gif

who shut the doors?

The reason why traffic is down and membership is up is because everyone has atleast 5 other nicks.

When you're at the top, there's only one way left to go....down.

GFY isn't the first webmaster board, and it likely won't be the last.

Hmmm..

Exponential growth up till June 2003 it seems. Then in a few months it starts to level off..

Probably just a normal growth curve..

Things cant keep growing right?

actually, there was a sharp rise just after your era... :)

But it is the best.

ANd the BEST always grow.

you must be blind...

Look at the 2 year chart right smack in the middle of 2003 and 2004 in the overall picture of things.

Look at everything before June 2003 and then everything after.

What do you see?

i think surfers come in here and figure out how to make money selling their sigs?

and from your post minutes later:

Looks to me like you don't think GFY is the best

:glugglug

what in the hell are you talking about?

That stoped the growth?

it's not traffic - it's RANK. a site can still grow but if other sites grow faster your RANK goes down.

If surfers coming in here selling their sigs lowered the quality of the board, then I think that could stop growth.

Its the fucking best...

But at one time it was better. And I still think the best days are ahead of us....

Oh shit.. I said us.. I meant GFY.

Bad habbit.

after the 6th month of 2003.. theres a sharp rise... for less than 3 months... then return to its "normal" position and then there's a big drop around february 2004...

whatever it is
i didnt even notice a change apart from the damn search function :glugglug

clearly the loss of Amp has been profound

What would you say if we made an analogy a person earning 10% more income over the past year, but inflation went up by 25%?

Doesn't look so good if you think of it that way....

Oh ok.. "Normal" huh??
Hmm.. Up till June 2003 the larger graph seems to show me here that "Normal" was exponential growth..

Not sure what you call normal..

<img src="http://www.beufords.com/!/gfy2year.gif">

And open your fucking eyes..

All the sharp rises were before June 2003..

All we have after June 2003 is a leveling off.

wonder if it spiked for the 1 million, 2 million and 3 million contests, and is naturally dropping because of the search function not working

you see that there's a plateau lasting about a year... with some some peaks and downs.. when those small peaks end.. I call it "normal" for teh year... call it whatever you like...

amp added some spice here..

I wish we could have all the graphs even before the 2 year mark.

GFY was created Jan 2001 for the Public.
I became Mod in 2002 and represented it.
In June 2003 I was dismissed.

Id like to see the graphs prior to 2002 also compared to 2002 to 2003 and then 2003 to 2004.

I bet 2001-2002 was big groth as well.

but the major chunk of it was 2002 to June 2003..

Id bet my fucking life on it...

GFY was my fucking life..

edit: FUCKING 1 MINUTE LIMIT!!! ...:mad:


you see that there's a plateau lasting about a year... (2003 3rd month to 2004 1st month) with some small variations.. peaks and downs.. when those small peaks end.. I call it return to "normal" for teh year... call it whatever you like...

Looks according to plan. We've been booting the retards around here. It's a behind the scenes thing, expect more bozos to go. GFY is #1, it doesn't need to have a bunch of non-pros to prop up ratings even more.

is this the end of oracle porn?

Good to hear.

for his sake, it might be a good idea... (sorry oracle if you read this)

I think it might be in your best interests to start anew with a new alias on the boards....

lens just sent me an icq calling me a "non pro"

lol

boneprone why were you dismissed?
i could search but im lazy.

just looks like Lens is cutting the crap and getting back to the webmasters.:2 cents:

Take a look at GFYBOARD.COM . 2 domains now ... traffic is splitted

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh


you crack me up the most at gfy. Thank you



BP4Life:thumbsup

that's a good point.

Aren't there other urls that let you access gofuckyourself.com now? I'm sure some people have these other urls bookmarked instead.
